So, nobody admitting to buying a Viagogo / Platinum / VIP type ticket then.
Somebody must buy them!

I can only reiterate,regarding the Taylor Swift tour,about best strategy being to JUST WAIT til much closer to show time. So many parasitic greedy fuckers on sites selling these at top dollar (seen my £112 tix for pushing £4k) and I genuinely believe nearer the time the prices will plummet . Been keeping an eye on the current US dates and upcoming shows in California seem readily available and people seemingly desperate to offload at way more reasonable prices . I'm debating trying to get tix for Roger Waters one-off London Palladium show later in year for the Dark Side revamp launch but be nice to see the prices first and call it from there. Off on hols this week to France and driving and less than helpfully (OR thank fuck it happened now,from a different viewpoint!) my clutch died yesterday and with a couple of other things that also needed doing,I'm not exactly flush this week so Roger may not be possible even if I can get tix. From experience,Palladium is a bloody uncomfortable venue too,not built for the tall among us 😂 I had tickets for the Foo Fighters before Taylor Hawkins died paid £136 each on resale and within a month we’re going for £220 each

As I often do I fat fingered it on my phone and ended up looking at Lancashire cricket club and the need up having the hospitality through them £200 cheaper than on ticket master

Me and two others went to watch Oasis at the Apollo at Manchester years back, probably around 2001/2.
Me and another lad paid face value (so £28 or whatever it was). The other lad paid £250 via resale. Funny thing is he was about 20 rows further back than us...
My lady reckons she paid £600 for tickets for my birthday present for Froch vs Groves II at Wembley stadium

Travelled to Sweden specifically to see Abruptum and Bathory in the early 90s. That cost quite a bit of money.

I paid a classmate 30p for a 15p ticket to the 6th Round FA Cup tie at Old Trafford in 1972. I must have been made of money!

I paid £90 Sunday before last for two of us for one day at a 'festival' near Northampton.
Not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things but after we'd parked up and looked over there was, at the most, 10 stalls selling stuff and nothing by way of entertainment, the weather the day before had been so bad most traders and a lot of the punters had buggered off home 😃
After a quick chat with security we settled on £20 instead of £90 and it turned out to be a really good day, not £90 worth tho.
